Northern Holiday
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Almost always travellin'
My jumper's been unravellin'
I snagged it on the doorpost as I left
No worth in seeing the world alone
Or following the threads back home
Apologising in my pants and vest
I know you were watching
I was on TV
I know that you were looking
Out for me
One of these days, I'll meet you
One of these days, I'll need to
One of these days, can I meet you?
One of these days
You were right, I was wrong
I forgot where I'm from
On a northern holiday
You were right, I was wrong
We're all off, come along
On a northern holiday
And I could order sandwiches
In over forty languages
But they don't make 'em like you do at home
They send us out in thunderstorms
And send us home in bandages
Turns out the streets are paved with paving stone
I know you were watching
On your Dial-a-Tron TV
I know that you were looking
Out for me
One of these days, I'll meet you
One of these days, I'll need to
One of these days, can I meet you?
One of these days
You were right, I was wrong
I forgot where I'm from
On a northern holiday
You were right, I was wrong
We're all off, come along
On a northern holiday
One of these days, I'll meet you
One of these days, I'll need to
One of these days, can I meet you?
One of these days
You were right, I was wrong
I forgot where I'm from
On a northern holiday
You were right, I was wrong
We're all off, come along
On a northern holiday
You were right, I was wrong (one of these days)
I forgot where I'm from (I'll meet you)
On a northern holiday (one of these days)
You were right, I was wrong (I'll need to)
We're all off, come along (one of these days)
On a northern holiday (can I meet you?)
(One of these days)
